Today, we're at the South County Car Show with the New England Region Cadillac & LaSalle Club, Inc., but last week, we got to bring the 1905 Cameron 4-Cylinder and the 1918 Pope Model T Twin motorcycle to the second annual Bay State Motor Festival. Once again, this celebration at Cushing Memorial Park in Framingham, MA, impressed us with their hospitality, selection of entries, and truly enthusiastic attendees. Our 1905 Cameron from the Cameron Automobile Company, founded in 1899 in Massachusetts, took home Best in Show. The restored 1918 Pope, made in Westfield, MA, and the last year and most powerful of the Pope bikes, won Best Motorcycle. Big thank you to everyone who voted for us and for Ken Lemoine for putting together this great event!

Update: Maybe I'm the good luck charm bringing positive energy. I hear my friend won a prize at the Bay State Motor Festival — congratulations! He was amazing when we chatted! I'm happy for you! Great meeting the owners they were so proud and knowledgeable about their cars! Thank you for sharing your passion for cars with our community! — Leslie White Harvey
